Summary
Chapters

Prologue. An advice is good. You do set to speak and write the English language to an audience. You've three types of narrative tense to choose one from. If you want to speak and do choose present tense narrative for an example, each one of all the words you speak must needs be present tense. Three main types of narrative tense are: present tense, past tense, and a mix of present and past tenses. I recommend present tense. This's in that a word of a language isn't the same as a day of a week. It's a day of a week which becomes yesterday. Not, a word we speak during the course of a day. And then, it isn't fair to a speaker, if s/he uses a narrative tense simply because of either a publisher or an audience. The English people look up to you. You who speak and write. They've need to get feedback over their having the English version, be a world language. Page 0.
